This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.9.3-1ubuntu10

---------------
plymouth (0.9.3-1ubuntu10) cosmic; urgency=medium

  * Grab some commits from upstream:
    + 0009-renderer-support-reactivating-renderer-without-closi.patch,
      0010-main-Only-activate-renderers-if-the-splash-uses-pixe.patch:
      Fix (or at least improve the situation regarding!) toggling of renderers
      on and off, e.g. when pressing escape multiple times to switch between
      text and graphics.
    + 0011-drm-Remove-unnecessary-reset_scan_out_buffer_if_need.patch:
      See the patch for a detailed description, but it avoids some cases of
      renderers becoming active unnecessarily, which is related to...
    + 0013-device-manager-don-t-watch-for-udev-events-when-deac.patch:
      Don't process udev events after we've been deactivated. These can cause
      renderers to activate, which might make them claim DRM master and never
      release it, causing wayland / Xorg to fail. (LP: #1795637)
  * git_ensure_tty_closed_0a662723.patch:
    + Re-cherry-picked, as it had been rebased before. The filename is now a
      lie, since I took the commit instead of the merge, but kept as-is for
      a more sane diff.
